Solo VanLife: Crossing into Mexico: PART 2
I never expected my cat to be chased by the Mexican Military... but here we are...
Hi! I'm Quin and have been living in my van FULL-TIME w/ my 2 CATS, Atlas and Otto, for the last THREE YEARS (Feb 2021!) After working for seven years in a corporate position as a marketing director and event producer for a magazine, I decided to leave my position, take a risk and jump into #solofemalevanlife w/ my two cats.
After two years of doing winter van life to snowboard… I am through. Listen… winter van life was great but to be honest, mentally, I was my worst self. Winter in the van was HARD and I finally am listening to my body and I am doing things a little differently this winter….
So, I am taking my van and my cat Atlas, to their THIRD COUNTRY…. Mexico!!
Join me on this two part journey on CROSSING THE BORDER into Mexico for the winter!
Let me know if you have any questions!

Oh we have a LOT to catch up on... After Otto passed away, I sort of checked out from social media. I was really focused on just living my life as best I can because you have no idea when your last day is... I know I share shorts but I don't really feel that they give you the whole story of out adventures... SO.. let's have a chat... let's catch up... let's chat about what Atlas and I have been...

My god
why do do many westerners seem to lack self-preservation instincts? adertising you are alone in a van as a young woman in mexico... even if she has a self defense weapon with her, she is outnumbered solo. this is so dangerous and luck will run out eventually. I hope she is extremely diligent with her safety
You are to fine to be alone
😊😊❤❤❤ greetings from San Felipe!!
Bruh cartels don’t play man and they Speak Spanish so idfk what they’re saying
I will ride out with you!
Nah go to Denver, or better yet stay the fuck out of Colorado

You should have someone who also has pets and would be consistent and hsve survival skills. Im not tsking thst they have to be male there are womrn who older ,who know theose skills, love animals, have knowledge of a wide expanse. Yes, there needs compromise sometimes but there are great rewards to hsve someone who enjoys this but can contribute with knowledge ,etc. Hunans are social even those of us who like to be recluses. Sometimes the closest people like famiky and friends are not always the greatest to depend on.
Trust me he don’t care about your eye. He just want to hit that from the back . You can be missing a eye ball and he will still hit it
That Is amazing! The penguin is cute too
She’s just pleading with the cartel to kidnap her. What is wrong with you, why are you doing this in Mexico? And please don’t say/think “biased people don’t realize how safe it really is!”. You are a single woman with no defenses, and you’re also accepting strangers food, really dumb move.
Born and raised in Idaho. Love the shoutout and your water bottle!
Eatimg ceviche is a great way to get a parasite, i onow ppl who did
Whay beach was that?
Yeah I think of what can break in a house and then a van and put them together
Hopefully you stay out of the bad areas and no corrupts military or police bother you good luck
Dont go to colorad
You did ALL that, AFTER you sold it? Could you have asked for more money if you did all that before you sold it?
I can't even get a gathering of 3 people.
How many takes does it takes to get the stupid dance nobody watching?
Aint no way mexican ceviche is better than peruvian ceviche
My favorite state is the state of depression that I am currently in.
Yes I don't think humans do good alone all the time
Quin.....what an amaaaazing design!!!! Also love all your design ideas!!!!!
Wanaaaaaaaa! Shut up!!
I've skipped from your first movie to these Mexico ones :) New van, is it also an AWD? Same water volume, lol. It's good you are travelling with others. I am not from US or Mexico but I have heard about Baja and recall images of lots of deep sand. Have you thought about carrying recovery tracks in-case you get stuck in sand or deep gravel? They /it would only have to work once. I see pretty rugged looking ones made of strips of heavy rubber wire-cabled together. Yeah, space and weight. I got surprised when I drove my van into some deceptively deep fairly coarse gravel one time. Boom, buried up the axles. 4x4 was useless. Luckily someone came along and pulled us out with a snatch strap. Actually, an air bag jack would have been handy then too! How is Mexico going?

A stranger showed up , nope
stupidity made to look cool
I'd like to thank you for choosing spandex pants.
As someone in colorado, please just come for the weed and leave.
Right by my house
Sweet. You did well Quin. So many good ideas and systems. Yes, and the kettle! :) I might check those out. I had a collapsable non-electric silicon one which was great but I overheated it and caused a leak in the metal bits. I've got a smaller van in a different country and security is always in the back of my mind. Situational awareness is a good friend too. All the best in your travels and way of life.
Plant come get with me
Stop!!!! Just stay away. It’s very dangerous!
I just converted my 90 vanagon westy to TDI, and manual tran with a bunch of off grid stuff. I love your videos. You Atlas and Otto are so rad. You can use my place anytime. :)
That's ass though ma'am
Would love to do this
😂😂
The consequences of actions. Van life and non van life have them. Just depends what you can allow yourself to live with.
Congrats on your success and journey. Thank you for giving us a small taste into the van life. 😊👍
You look amazing

As a Coloradan I was gonna say, "Don't come here at all." However it seems like the rest of my state has been here already. Glad we're all on the same page.
Everyday a vacation when you live in San Diego
I'm sorry for your loss. He'll be waiting for you at the rainbow Bridge I'm sure. I've lost several cats growing up and it still hurts when I think about it. But I wouldn't trade the memories for anything in the world. My pets made me a better kinder person
Looks like all the money saved on rent and utilities is going towards ice cream and cookies.
you're gorgeous! Can I come?
